RELATIONSHIPS

November 11,  2011

Quote for Today


"True belonging is born of relationships
not only to one another, but to a place
of shared responsibilities and benefits.
We love not so much what we have acquired
as what we have made and whom 
we have made it with."


Robert Finch, "Scratching," The Primal Place, 1983

Questions:

Comparing connections and relationships you had in school and those you have had at work, which ones had the greater impact. Name names for yourself.

Talk with your spouse and close friends about the people who have impacted you in your life. Who comes to mind first?

What was your best work place?  Was it the work or the people there who made it the best?

What was your best school moment? Have you figured out reasons why?

Now re-read the words of Robert Finch once again.  Does it make more sense after reflecting upon these questions?
